How to use & care for your galet parfumé

A galet parfumé releases fragrance without electricity, heat or a flame. Its porous plaster holds a little scented liquid and lets the fragrance evaporate gradually.

How to perfume your galet

1. Place the dry stone on a suitable protective surface.
2. Apply a small quantity of essential oil to the back or underside, following the oil supplier’s instructions.
3. Allow the oil to absorb completely.
4. Place the galet on a small ceramic dish or another suitable protective support.
5. When the fragrance becomes weaker, refresh it with a little more oil.

The amount depends on the size, porosity and composition of the plaster, and on the oil used. Do not saturate the stone: excess oil can stain its surface or transfer onto furniture. Allow the fragrance to develop before adding more; some oils are much more intense than others.

How long does the fragrance last?

There is no universal answer. Longevity depends on the quantity applied, the volatility of the aromatic compounds, room temperature, air circulation, the size of the stone and the surrounding space.

Citrus oils tend to evaporate relatively quickly. Woody and resinous notes may remain perceptible for longer. These are general tendencies, not a promise of a particular duration. Combining aromatic profiles can create a more balanced fragrance experience.

Enjoy it with care

Keep oils away from painted, varnished and delicate surfaces, and away from food-preparation areas. Keep galets and oil bottles out of reach of children and animals.

If you share your home with animals, read the pet-owner precautions before introducing fragrance. Product-specific instructions will be added with the individual catalogue entries.
